Dark child, I am sorry to hear about what happened. Maybe I can give you a bit of insight on the other side of the tracks. My daughter who is 16 has been having a bunch of problems for a yr now, run away now 10 times, takes off with friends with out telling me (now please for a moment stop and think about how a parent must feel when their child is out and you dont know about it and dont know where they are). Parents yell, that is in our rule book, sometimes we forget our kids are growing up faster that what WE think they should. But along that same line, most kids today dont really care about how their parents feel, and possibly vice versa, but being a parent comes with alot of baggage and that baggage gets to be a bit heavy. Ashley my daughter has been out of a treatment center for almost a month now, and we are still having some problems but I take a step back and remember when I was her age and what it was like to be a teen. It isnt easy being a teen these days. It is confusing, frustrating and just like a jigsaw puzzle you have to find the right peice to fit. Hun take it easy, give your mom some time to cool down and try and talk, but approach the topic with kid gloves so to speak.. Us moms are monsters just overworked...Good luck and let me know how you are doing.
